I noticed that Michael Sharpe has retweeted the article. Which is quite revealing. Means he's all for reviving the anti-science death threats narrative.

It might be a bit of an 'own goal' though, if folks he retweets it to actually read the attached comments. People politely engaging with Vigo only for her to lash out at them with ad homs, her insistence that Googling for several-years-old sensationalist newspaper interviews constitutes 'evidence' of the claims she makes (and her refusal to reply to folks who ask her for real, documented, evidence other than old newspaper interviews). It really doesn't make her look at all good.

I don't think they do, in any case. It seems more like they use a terrible problem (and the patients suffering from it) as a vehicle for taking themselves very seriously, without accomplishing anything positive. For God's sake, if you're going to take yourself as seriously as Jean-Luc Picard, you'd damn well better justify it with some historically positive achievements!
